Design S0734A at a glance
An ornate shield with a German shepherd, crossed batons and pine, finished in navy, silver and white with a silver edge. Lettering covers a sheriff’s office name, a unit number, a two-word motto and a K-9 unit line — the handler-team layout for offices that want the dog, the duty tools and the local landscape in one emblem.

About this shepherd, batons and pine shield
The German shepherd is the archetypal patrol dog, and pairing it with crossed batons ties the dog to its handler’s duty kit rather than presenting it as a mascot. Pine adds a sense of place for forested districts. The ornate outline — more elaborate than a standard shield — signals a specialty unit, while the navy, silver and white palette keeps it formal.
Set your office name, unit number, motto and K-9 unit line in the lettering. The shepherd can be redrawn as a malinois or lab, or from a photo of your own dog. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

K9 deputy patch questions
Can the shepherd be redrawn as our own dog?
Yes. Send a clear photo of your K9 and we redraw the head to match its markings at no art charge.
Can the unit number and motto change?
Yes. Office name, unit number, motto and K-9 unit line all restitch to your wording; the proof shows every line.
Do you make a harness-size version?
Yes. A 3-inch velcro version fits most K9 harness panels; order it in the same quote as shoulder patches.
Can we swap the batons for another symbol?
Yes. Handcuffs, a sheriff’s star or crossed leads all work — mark it in the design tool and we redraw it.
How do I request changes to this design?
Open the markup tool on this page: circle the dog, pin notes on the lettering and try subdued colors. The marked version attaches to your quote automatically.
